Items you need to invest in

After seeing all the fashion shows, I have already made a list for you with the must-haves for the upcoming summer. For years now, there hasn't really been a new piece of clothing that you must have; it’s mainly about how you wear something. The right styling, therefore. Below, I share with you the items that will make you shine this summer. And of course, I will also tell you how to wear them.

The dress for the upcoming summer is inspired by the slip dress. Think romantic with a lace trim here and there and of course in a white shade. Wear it just like at Givenchy with a lace-up boot and nothing else. But with a leather jacket and a biker bootie, it also works really well.

The bomber is totally back in style. Alessandro Michele, the still relatively new designer from Gucci, has ensured that everyone wants what he touches. So also the satin bomber with Chinese embroidery. Pay special attention to the mix, so how to wear it.

The Breton stripe is something everyone already has in a hundred variations hanging in their closet. And to be honest, we can't do without it anymore. But the designers need to come up with something new, so we will see the beach chair stripe massively appearing on the catwalks this summer. I think it’s nice!

We actually see black lace every summer at the Dolce & Gabbana show. It’s feminine, sexy, and a nod to the Catholic faith. I have found lace incredibly attractive for years. So has Clare Waight Keller, because at Chloé we also saw beautiful black lace dresses passing by. Now still looking for the right slip dress, because such a big pair of panties only looks good on the catwalk. Really!

I saw a school uniform look at Prada with a matching vest in primary colors. Surprisingly worn with the striped silk skirt, the vest suddenly has a high desirability factor. Who would have thought?

We saw this before, but this summer it’s back. The overall. I find it incredibly sexy with a pair of high-heeled sandals underneath. And so nice: you’re ready to go, you don’t have to think about what to wear with it. The discomfort in a small toilet is just something you have to accept. Maybe you’ll get lucky and find something from this list on sale. And otherwise, you will definitely wear these pieces with a lot of pleasure.
